| 0:00.0 | well joe concha of course the great fox news contributor media politics columnist for the hill and he's got a new book coming out pretty soon called come on man make sure you follow him on twitter joe concha tv at twitter joe concha how you doing |
| 0:15.6 | doing well my friend just trying to deal with this heat, but air conditioning is the cure all, apparently. |
| 0:21.9 | It is brutal out there today. Most people would normally be talking about it, but everybody's working from home, so they don't know what we're talking about. They haven't been out yet. |
| 0:30.0 | Great point. Hey, Bill de Blasio finally saw the light. He can't run. He's done with politics. Where is this guy going to go next? |
| 0:39.2 | Well, you know, I guess he got to the part mark where you have to do the bumper sticker, right? |
| 0:45.8 | And the bumper sticker he came up with was, I'll do for New York's 10th district what I did for New York City. |
| 0:53.4 | And he showed us with some friends. They said, no, I don't think you ought to go down that route because you were, and I don't know, you've been in New York longer than I have, but he is the worst mayor we've ever had in the history of not only this city, but any city. And I'm even talking about fictional cities where you're talking about, you know, Mayor Quimby from the Simpsons, or I think Boss Hogg was a mayor in Hazard County and the Dix of Hazard. But, yeah, I mean, this guy is probably the worst ever, right? Well, he would argue that Adams is now the worst because he got crime 40% higher. That's a good point. But, you know, I'll go with the liquidity inherited thing. I mean, Eric Adams has been a disappointment to this point. There's still time for him to turn it around. It's not just as bad. It went 40% higher. That's quite an achievement. Yeah, I know. I guess what I'm saying is that the Blasio was so bad that to repair whatever he did to this city will take maybe decades, right? I mean, Giuliani was able to turn it around after Dinkins pretty easily. In Bloomberg, I don't think it's enough credit for being an exceptional mayor of New York. But now you see what de Blasio has done over the past years. And, you know, again, this used to be a city where |
| 2:02.3 | people were, you didn't have to be afraid to put your kid outside at night. Or if you're a New York |
| 2:06.5 | City cop, you're proud to say you're a New York City cop. And now he's turned all that completely on its head. |
| 2:11.8 | De Blasio did. So what does he do next? Five letters. M.S.MBC. |
| 2:23.3 | Really? Welcome to Morning Joe. Sure. Why not? I could see them signing him. He's on the show enough. He probably made enough friends where they'll be like, he did one for president once, |
| 2:27.0 | so maybe he gave us some great analysis into the insights of the political world. |
| 2:30.1 | Really? Who knows? Well, he's a nice looking guy, and he is a charming guy in real life. He's a likable guy. But you think he'd be a good TV personality? He wouldn't wear thin after a while? No, I don't think he'd be very good at all. I just think that's the way it works in this business, that even when you're bad at your job, you're like a horrible politician. You've done the worst job ever. You somehow get hired by these places, right? I mean, there was a bidding war for Jen Saki, okay, who is so profoundly condescending, dishonest, unauthentic, and CNN and MSNBC are throwing millions at her just together. That's what I mean. Like, it doesn't matter about performance. As long as you were out there in the public eye and you said or did provocative things, good enough for some in the cable news industry, apparently. Hey, Joe Concher writes these great columns. You wrote one about Joe Manchin. There's some people, once he's why he sees, oh, he'd be a great presidential candidate. He can't run for president. He's got no base, right? |
| 3:25.4 | The Democrats won't vote for him and the Republicans won't vote for him. |
| 3:28.3 | I know. |
| 3:28.9 | I just wrote about Mansion today, the columns up in the hill.com, how he saved the Democratic Party from itself and putting the country. |
| 3:38.5 | You think we're in bad shape now with 9.1% inflation, |
| 3:41.4 | is that build back better debacle had passed? It's something like $6 trillion in additional |
| 3:45.9 | spending on top of everything else. I mean, you're talking about like major double digits |
| 3:49.7 | of inflation and all these things that we don't need particularly now, given the economic |
| 3:54.6 | situation, and mansions the one that saved the Democrats from themselves. |
| 3:59.3 | And he would be, and we talked about this with Larry Cudlow when we've been on the air with him, |
